Out of genuine curiosity, using Colorhexa.comand some research into official parties colours, we found if all of the official Canadian political parties (yes, even the obscure ones) had their party colours mixed with one another in proportion to their electoral support in the 2015 Federal Election (39.47% #D71920 + 31.91% #1A4782 etc.), the result is an elegant, faded bordeaux. Its hexcode is #924548.
